Lamps
Get some help rewiring your old lamp!
Computers
If your device (laptop, tablet, or smartphone) is acting up, our computer gurus will see if they can figure out what's going on. Or leave it at home, and just ask them questions! Among their favorite topics: how to purchase your next tech with repair and lifecycle in mind, and how to switch to Linux when your laptop will no longer receive Windows updates.
Bikes
Folks from the Gear Hub and Bicycle Coalition of Maine will be there to help to adjust brakes, tune gears, fix flat tires, and lubricate chains. There are a lot of troubled bikes out there--maybe yours, your neighbor's, your neighbors' kid's...Come learn a thing or two to get yourself and your people riding.
